Building a Case for Change with Curtis Bateman

This episode of Transform Your Workplace features a deep dive into insights from Curtis Bateman’s co-authored book, Change: How to Turn Uncertainty into Opportunity. The episode explores the most common reactions to change — Move, Minimize, Wait, Resist, and Quit — and the leader’s role in understanding and managing these reactions as they move forward. Don’t miss this timely discussion on how leaders can spearhead positive change in a constantly evolving workplace.   TAKEAWAYS Move, Minimize, Wait, Resist, and Quit are all natural and common reactions to change in the workplace.  Leaders must recognize and manage these diverse reactions instead of moving forward without employee buy-in. Each reaction has its strengths and limitations, and leaders can effectively tap into and leverage the strengths during times of change. A well-crafted case for change facilitates alignment and engagement throughout the organization. Leaders need to discern where their team members are in their journey through change and tailor their approach accordingly, and this requires a deep understanding of people's feelings, thoughts, and actions in the midst of change.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST 🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️ Host: Brandon Laws 📋 In his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.”
